Detail-oriented data annotation specialist with strong transcription skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented data annotation specialist with practical experience in labeling text, image, and audio datasets for AI and machine learning projects. I bring academic training from the University of Nairobi where I developed research, analytical, documentation, and data management skills.
In my current role as a Data Annotation Associate at Sama in Nairobi, I maintain a 98%+ quality accuracy rate and consistently meet strict project guidelines and deadlines. Previously, I worked as a Data Collection Assistant for CloudFactory, where I collected and organized structured and unstructured data and used Excel and Google Sheets for dataset management.
As a Freelance Transcriptionist for TranscribeMe, I transcribed audio and video recordings with attention to grammar, punctuation, and speaker identification while delivering projects within tight deadlines. I ensure confidentiality and data integrity across all assignments.
I am reliable and capable of working independently or collaboratively, focused on producing high-quality digital work and supporting AI/ML projects through meticulous data preparation.
